Wildflowersby *Damascus5

Traditional Art / Drawings / Landscapes & Scenery

Visited family over the weekend and my grandmother had bought a 30x40" canvas for me to paint something on so she could hang it over her fireplace. She wanted something colorful for the spring and summer so we looked through pics she had taken of flowers around the house.
Had fun working loosely with the brightest colors in my palette

EDIT: A big thank you to owl00 and wdwparksgal for getting my picture to be featured as a DD!!! What a wonderful surprise to start the day

The suggester says of this gorgeous painting, "I think this painting is so perfect for summer. The colors give me such a wonderful feeling, and I love being able to see all the expressive brushstrokes. It is a beautiful work of traditional art." ( Suggested by ~owl00 and Featured by `WDWParksGal )

AMAZE

I know
Not these my hands
And yet I think there was
A woman like me once had hands
Like these.

I absolutely love this.... the expressive brushwork is amazing! And the contrast between the colors is so striking.

~RoadZero Jun 15, 2011 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

Though seems to be drawn with loose big strokes, it's really detailed in the places where it needs to. Your technique with pastels and your vision are both awesome.

Ask any artist about “emptiness&#x 201D; and they’ll tell you about the constant recurring nightmarish emptiness they must face down almost every day as a part of their vocation: the blank space that they must fill. Whether he’s a painter facing a blank canvas or she’s...
